DNA mismatch repair and mutation avoidance in the ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila

DNA mismatch repair and mutation avoidance in the ciliate protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila

The DNA of all organisms is continuously exposed to exogenous and endogenous genotoxic agents. Fortunately, through the concerted actions of several DNA repair and mutation avoidance pathways, DNA damage can be removed and an organism’s genomic stability maintained. DNA base-base mismatches are gene...
